Additionally, we do the cleanup of the remains of a previously failed
run prior creating the run directory. Otherwise, the directly creation
may fail because of a pending bindmount.
With this patch, the thread context area RM session gets created at
program startup to have the thread context area's virtual address range
reserved right from the beginning.
Fixes#734.
This patch implies that all Genode processes try to create an RM
session. So a route to the RM service must be present even for processes
that have only a single thread. Hence, the patch contains an update of
affected components.
The parent-service registry is populated on demand by the
'Loader::Child' whenever a prior unknown service is requested. Since the
number of parent services is limited, we expect the registry to settle
after a while. However, each loader session has a private instance of
a parent-service registry. So when creating and destroying loader
sessions, parent registries will be populated again and again. We
have to make sure to discard the entries along with the destruction
of a loader session to avoid the leakage of memory.
Issue #717
Enable optinal support for double buffering in the i.MX53 framebuffer
driver. This prevents flickering in certain scenarios, where applications
directly render in the framebuffer dataspace given by the driver.
* Simplify IPU register definitions using templates
* Distinguish between i.MX53 QSB and SMD board in driver
* Support IPU specific overlay mechanism by framebuffer session extension
This commit removes an endless loop, that occurred when the sd_card driver
called usleep, or msleep on its Timer_delayer object. Fixes#705
Also fixes the same problem for the Omap4 GPIO driver.
'Gratuitous ARP' broadcast messages are used to announce newly created
IP<->MAC address mappings to other hosts. nic_bridge-internal hosts
would expect a nic_bridge-internal MAC address in this message, whereas
external hosts would expect the NIC's MAC address in this message.
The simplest solution to this problem is to just drop those messages,
since they are not really necessary.
Fixes#709.
The KDB UART driver uses the Fiasco(.OC) kernel debugger console as backend
for input and output. This is useful in the case that only one UART is
available.
Fixes#665.
Remove the 'epit' variable from the generic imx31 and imx53 specification,
and only add it to base-hw specific i.MX specs. Thereby the EPIT timer
library gets build for base-hw only.
Moreover, fix some const-ness issues in the platform_timer implementation
for the EPIT timer.
Fixes#688.
Instead of trying all PCI devices by a specific PCI driver, now the device or
the device class can be limited to the one actually supported by the specific
driver.
This patch moves the os/config examples to their respective run scripts,
removes some of them, and moves the priority example to the src/init
directory (where other examples are located).
Additionally, this patch adapts the OKL4-specific priority.run test to
the recent changes of the timer interface.
This patch simplifies the way of how Genode's base libraries are
organized. Originally, the base API was implemented in the form of many
small libraries such as 'thread', 'env', 'server', etc. Most of them
used to consist of only a small number of files. Because those libraries
are incorporated in any build, the checking of their inter-dependencies
made the build process more verbose than desired. Also, the number of
libraries and their roles (core only, non-core only, shared by both core
and non-core) were not easy to capture.
Hereby, the base libraries have been reduced to the following few
libraries:
- startup.mk contains the startup code for normal Genode processes.
On some platform, core is able to use the library as well.
- base-common.mk contains the parts of the base library that are
identical by core and non-core processes.
- base.mk contains the complete base API implementation for non-core
processes
Consequently, the 'LIBS' declaration in 'target.mk' files becomes
simpler as well. In the most simple case, only the 'base' library must
be mentioned.
Fixes#18
